Just to underline that not all photography is about recording visual experience. I still cannot believe how much is packed into this image, so opposite of many of my stripped down images, but the change is rather good.
I was a bit tired when I did this, as I often am these days. An hour of editing is really it - if I spend any more then I start asking myself the question where am I going with the image. Too often the answer in that case is that I don't know.
Oil paintings consume so much time in the making that sometimes I feel a bit guilty being able to turn around my pieces so quickly. Perhaps oil painters feel the same way about the carvers of jade?
It was a relatively good night out, I was able to see a friend who had been away in Britain for a few years, although the guy on harmonica you feel like giving a big boot up his backside for believing more in the second rate society he moves in than in following his own talents. That's why I boxed him in with the crane.
To be honest, there is too much detail here, but I was satisfied with how far I went and the message I was able to leave there.
